Well what I was trying to say is, they're just simple normal jeans in a cream/tan wash, no real need to ponder it too much, there isn't anything questionable, unusual or special about the jeans, for better or worse. If you like them, buy them, if not, don't.

I think that happens to a lot of people on the forum in regards to nice items and styling
Well, I am a size 1 in Julius and most of the stuff I wear regularly is not too far off from the aesthetic of those cargo's. I would likely pair them with some boots and a shirt from Lad, DBSS, or The Viridi Anne. And I already own the exact Julius bag shown in the picture-- so it's not like I'd be walking around sporting a Filson bag and EG shirt while wearing those pants.

I totally understand and appreciate your point, but often I find having a style that is close to Julius (but slightly different) will look better than wearing head-to-toe Julius. And if for some reason my pairings do not work, I'll keep buying more stuff until I find the right pairings. Often I find trying something a bit different is a good way of evolving my style further.

Hahahaha.... I feel sorry for Xeno. It must be very difficult to find anything that fits without resorting to wearing children's or women's clothing.. Didn't he say in another thread that he wore a size 24 jeans? I recall him being annoyed that his local shop did not carry size 1 in The Viridi Anne. Since I can fit into size 1 and wear size 29 jeans, I would imagine that even many Japanese brands are too big for him.
